Yep. I'd probably .zip a folder with the initial thumbnails that gets
downloaded and expanded the first time your app runs. Expand them into a
thumbnails folder that you create inside the Documents folder on the device.
Hi Gerry,
Thank you for your patience on this.
Am a bit new to iOS - an ios newbie with limited exposure to this. Been
away from this tech world a while.
So i can use: get URL tFile and then save to a folder inside the ipad app.
Like the example in the dictionary for specialfolderpath("cache")
I might have missed something but why not download the images the first time
the app ever loads (and store them locally)? As I understand it you'll need to
do that for all the images only the first time it loads, and then from time to
time just download updates? Once downloaded you could cache
Just did a test that displayed the list of file urls taken from a tab delim
text file on a server.
Ran it in the iPad simulator.
It reported start of the repeat with an answer that showed me the correct
files
It then looped through all files i wanted and correctly displayed the url
I put a one
Whoops. Sorry. Yes, you have the right idea. That should work.
I believe you can also set the size of the image cache using imageCacheLimit -
that will maximise the chance that your images won't be flushed from the cache.
I have no idea if the image cache persists across app restarts but based o
prepare image file "http://yourserver.com/logos/logo.jpg";...
...should do it. Assuming of course that it works on online images...

I'm trying to understand proper use of "prepare image"
prepare image "myImage"
prepare image file "/Disk/Folder/logo.jpg"
If anyone knows, please tell me if this usage sounds correct.
I have 100 thumbnail images on a server that I want to use and reuse, in a
very quick display manner.
